In THE fields of industry, says the
Rev. i. j. Conaty in the Catholic
World, capital and labor are often in
disagreement; but the merciless,
ceaseless enemy of labor is intemper-
ance.
At times capital and labor agree
and the contest between them ceases
or is modified. But between labor
and intemperanee there can never be
any truce, and intemperance will
cease to infict damage only when il
has been vercom and not COM
promised with.
Temperance will unite more knots
in the labor problem than all the
laws that all the Legislatures in the
country can pass.
Father Conaty's vie VS. are sound
